Technically, when you look at Xbox360 to Xbox One, vs Xbox One to Xbox Series X, yes, latter is actually bigger jump. The thing is, perceived jump is much smaller and those base consoles are bare minimum for generational jump to start with.

Rarely any game renders at 4K native on base 9th gen consoles, and no AAA game I know of (unless it's last gen upgrade).

How can there be much exclusives when everything gets destroyed by cross gen or wasted for PC ports?

Not sure if I understood correctly, but since you bolded that part I figured you're thinking exclusives would bring native 4K rendering - they wouldn't - unless they are visually not very demanding.

4K was, and still is, just marketing. 9th gen consoles are simply not fit to render 4K native AND have noticeably better visuals than 8th gen, since jump from 1080p to 2160p is way bigger than 720p to 1080p of 7th to 8th gen, and raw processing power of 9th gen, more or less, made the similar jump as 8th gen consoles compared to 7th gen.

That's why they all render in lower resolutions and upscale to 4K - which is sensible approach.
